It was decades later that the secret behind this spectacular success became known. The East German Sports Federation had, with the help of the Stasi, used Performance Enhancing Drugs or PEDs to ensure that their athletes gained international recognition by winning the Olympic events. This systematic plan had been initiated in 1974 as a means to guarantee international glory through the achievement of gold medals at the prestigious sporting event. Oral- Turinabol , a testosterone derivative was used extensively to improve muscle mass and cut down recovery time. This allowed the German athletes to train harder and longer than other world athletes.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 76073
xmms freezes when launched from menu with xosd plugin installed
Last modified: 2014-03-16 22:31:49 EDT
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020830
Description of problem:
When xmms, with the xosd plugin installed from
http://psyche.freshrpms.net/rpm.html?id=111 , is launched from menu -> sound &
video it loads then just hangs. xmms loads fine if launched from a terminal.
I uninstalled xosd-xmms-1.0.4-fr1.i386.rpm just to be sure, xmms worked fine
after that.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. install xosd-xmms-1.0.4-fr1.i386.rpm from freshrpms.net
2. launch xmms from menu -> sound & video -> audio player
3. xmms loads then freezes
Additional info:
Immediately after a fresh install of the xosd-xmms package, xmms will launch
successfully, but will crash when attempting to configure the plugin in the
preferences dialog.
This sounds like an issue with that particular plugin. Maybe it hangs when
stdin/stdout/stderr is not a tty?
In any case, this doesn't look like an xmms bug.
I've always used this plugin (same version in all cases) and never encountered
any problems until xmms-1.2.7-13.p.
Just wanted to know if anyone else was experiencing this behaviour.

Date rape is defined as sexual assault committed by a person with whom the victim was acquainted with. The relationship between the victim and perpetrator can either be romantic or sexual, or platonic such as co-workers or neighbors. Date rape is particularly prevalent on college campuses, where situations involving alcohol or other date rape drugs occur, which may facilitate the crime of drug-assisted sexual assault.
While the term "date rape" is not in the Florida Statutes, rape is considered sexual battery. When it comes to sexual battery charges, the relationship between the defendant and the victim has no real bearing on the weight of the offense. Whether the defendant knew the victim or not, the charge will always be sexual battery.
Sexual battery is considered a second-degree felony in Florida, resulting in a maximum prison sentence of 15 years and a fine of up to $10,000. Furthermore, those convicted will have to register with the state Sex Offender Registry, where citizens of Florida will be able to track where they move and their current location.
If the alleged victim was 12 to 18 years of age, the defendant will be charged with a first-degree felony, which results in a maximum prison sentence of 20 years. If the presence of Rohypnol (roofies) or GHB is evident, it can lead to increased penalties as well.
Arrested for or charged with a sex crime in Florida? Request a free consultation with our Weston criminal defense attorneys at the Law Office of Kevin F. Moot today.

Most Popular cards on M-L in MODERN (04-09-11)
Written by derflippi on September 04, 2011
Magic-League holds A LOT of tournaments, and we have A LOT of data gathered on decks, players and formats. As a courtesy to our members and remembering our retired staff member Laplie; I'm thinking publishing collations of the data (or similar data) on a semi-regular basis.
Without further ado, I present to you the card statistics from all MODERN tournaments run on magic-league:
1. Maindeck nonland cards
2. Maindeck land cards
3. Sideboard cards
About the statistics: The percentages for that card in the respective top30 NOT the percentage the card is played in modern as a whole. The counts are taken from all tournaments (minis, trials, masters) played since the first modern mini was created.

Surprised to see that Tec Edge is that low.
by platinum1 on 2011-09-04 07:32 CET
Isn't mental misstep banned? How is it in top sideboard cards?
by sgt_pepper on 2011-09-04 08:23 CET
Yeah but i think he took ALL modern minis, trials etc. And we had quite a few before the bannings were announced, so misstep was still legal there and probably a highly used sb card.

For the 23rd of the January, western Mass is starting off pretty mild this Monday morning. Temperatures are 15-20 degrees above-average for this time of year. There may be a few ocean-effect shower and flurries for the morning into the afternoon, but this would be the pre-cursor to the main event. A strengthening low pressure system in the Southeast will makes its way off-the-coast, bringing some rain, sleet, and snow, along with strong winds.

Howard Kurtz, Fox News Media Analyst, and host of "MediaBuzz" argued that after Sony pulled "The Interview" following threats made against the film that "there is now nothing to stop other attackers from targeting [anything]…that displeases them, and many, many American companies are vulnerable" on Wednesday's "Kelly File" on the Fox News Channel.
"This is an undeniable victory, Martha, for the attackers, for a terror attack on a major corporation and for their patrons in North Korea," he stated, also criticizing the media for being "enablers" of hackers by giving the material they leak coverage.
Kurtz further described the movie as "stupid," and "reckless," but added "it still is a blow against free speech, as dumb as the movie might be…there is now nothing to stop other attackers from targeting any movie, or magazine, or newspaper article that displeases them, and many, many, American companies are vulnerable."

The international design competition to re-imagine Pershing Square launched by Councilmember José Huizar and Pershing Square Renew took another important step today with the selection of 10 semi-finalist teams that will now submit Proposals, seeking to be one of four finalists in this competition to re-design the nearly 150-year old public square.
Councilmember Huizar – who spearheaded the creation of Pershing Square Renew to redesign the park – is pleased with the results so far.
"These 10 teams represent an impressive mix of local, national and international talent, and that is great news for Pershing Square and Downtown Los Angeles," said Councilmember José Huizar. "What started with 80 letters of interests, 54 teams submitting requests for qualifications, and now today's 10 semi-finalists, will ultimately lead to one winning design team. I am very excited to see this kind of interest from some of the leading design firms in the world and I think the process we've put in place gives us the very best opportunity to select a final design that will truly be the gift that Downtown Los Angeles and this nearly 150-year historic plaza deserve."
The teams that have qualified for the next round of the Pershing Square Design Competition are:
- Agence Ter from Paris, France
- Snohetta from Oslo, Norway
- James Corner Field Operations from New York City
- W Architecture from New York City
- PWP Landscape Architecture from San Francisco
- Mia Lehrer Associates from Los Angeles with !Melk from New York City
- Petersen Studio + BNIM from Los Angeles
- Rios Clementi Hale from Los Angeles with OMA from New York City
- SWA from Los Angeles and Morphosis
- wHY Architecture from Culver City, CA
These 10 teams have been selected to participate in the next phase of the competition, the Request for Proposals. The teams will present their approach and framework for re-designing the Square to the Pershing Square Renew jury and the general public in December. Following this, four finalists will be selected. In March 2016, the finalists will present to the jury in Los Angeles, with a winner announced later that month.
"Their challenge isn't to win awards; it's to win over hearts," said Eduardo Santana, Executive Director of Pershing Square Renew. "More than anything else, these groups need to focus on the experiences their design will inspire and the memories the Square will create."
The Pershing Square Renew Jury consists of:
Donna Bojarsky, Founder and President, Future of Cities: Leading in LA
José Huizar- Councilmember, 14th District
Mary McCue, Founder, MJM Management Group
Rick Poulos, Principal, NBBJ
Wayne Ratkovich, President and CEO, The Ratkovich Co.
Janet Rosenberg, Founding Principal, Janet Rosenberg & Studio
Michael Shull, General Manager, City of LA Department of Recreation and Parks
Janet Marie Smith, SVP, Planning and Development, Los Angeles Dodgers
Michael Woo, Dean, Cal Poly Pomona, School of Environmental Design
Will Wright, Downtown Resident, Director of Government and Public Affairs, AIA
On Sept. 1st, the Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously to support Councilmember José Huizar's legislation to form a public/private partnership to overhaul and renew DTLA's Pershing Square. The next day, consistent with that agreement, the non-profit Pershing Square Renew announced plans for an international design competition to re-envision the five-acre urban park.
Located in the heart of Downtown L.A. – at the intersection of the Financial District, and the Historic Core -- Pershing Square is the City of Los Angeles' oldest park, dedicated in 1866 by Mayor Cristobal Aguilar as "La Plaza Abaja" (the Lower Plaza). Pershing Square has been redesigned and renamed multiple times since its inception -- the major redesigns occurred in the 1950s and early 1990s.
The initiative to overhaul and improve Pershing Square can be credited to larger revitalization efforts all around Downtown, including Huizar's "Bringing Back Broadway" effort, which started seven years ago, and led to a rash of revitalization along the corridor that has attracted the likes of Ace Hotel, Urban Outfitters, Acne Studios, Umami Burger and a revitalized Grand Central Market and Clifton's Cafeteria.
In the summer of 2013, Councilmember Huizar announced a task force of 21 Downtown stakeholders to spearhead the effort to re-imagine Pershing Square to match the broad transformation of the Downtown area.
The group included Downtown residents, design and architectural experts, business representatives and property owners, and was guided by representatives from governmental agencies like the City's Department of Recreation and Parks, the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority, LAPD and the City's Planning Department. This task force eventually combined with a non-profit entity, Pershing Square Renew, to oversee the initiative, including oversee the design competition.
"Our semi-finalists are a diverse group with rich and impressive track records that represent the world's best and brightest in public space design," said Jeff Berris, Board President for Pershing Square Renew and development executive for MacFarlane Partners.
"It's exciting to see the overwhelming interest in the future of Pershing Square, and I look forward to reviewing proposals that seek to represent the forthcoming world-class public space," said Michael A. Shull, General Manager, Recreation and Parks.

I've done enough to prove my potential, says Kareena Kapoor
Kareena Kapoor-Khan's 14-year-old Bollywood career has been a bit of a roller-coaster ride. But in an industry where an actor gets written off after every film that doesn't work at the box-office, Kareena has managed to hold her own.bollywood Updated: Nov 04, 2014 13:56 IST
Kareena Kapoor-Khan's 14-year-old Bollywood career has been a bit of a roller-coaster ride. But in an industry where an actor gets written off after every film that doesn't work at the box-office, Kareena has managed to hold her own. Starting with the critically acclaimed Refugee (2000), the actor gradually evolved from being just-a-pretty-face to a performer, who knows her craft, as is evident in several films like Chameli (2003), Omkara (2006) and Jab We Met (2007). But of late, Kareena has been seen in more commercial films.
While the actor admits the same, she expresses her desire to now take on projects that offer her author-backed characters. "Yes, I have been doing only commercially viable films for some time now, maybe because I wanted a break. But I know that many people want to see me in performance-oriented roles, and I am now looking forward to doing them," says Kareena.
The 34-year-old reveals that, currently, she is very impressed with the kind of 'realistic' work that young film-makers are doing, and would love to team up with some of them. She says, "I am interested in working with new directors, and look forward to doing something that I have not done in the past. However, I will only choose films that suit my personality. I am not keen to drastically change my career graph. I think I have done enough to prove my potential."
Putting things in perspective, Kareena says, "At this phase in my life, I want to select films that really interest me. I will soon start shooting for a film with Salman (Khan), and I believe that it will be something that will attract the attention of film lovers."
Kareena Kapoor Khan, who has been acting for over a decade now, isn't keen on venturing into any aspect of film-making in Bollywood. Her husband, Saif Ali Khan has produced a few movies, but Kareena says she has no plans of getting involved. "Production is not my cup of tea. To become a producer is to do the toughest job in this industry, and I don't have that inclination," says Kareena, adding, "Plus, I am too busy with my personal and professional life as an actor to venture into anything else. I want people to remember me just as an actor."
Although many films starring Kareena and Saif — Tashan (2008), Kurbaan (2009) and Agent Vinod (2012), among others — haven't performed well at the box-office, she is still keen on working with her husband. "Our films haven't worked in the past, but I feel that had nothing to do with our pairing. We'll appear in a film together again if there's a spectacular script available," says Kareena.
The couple recently celebrated their second wedding anniversary at Saif's ancestral home in Pataudi. But Kareena admits that they are in no hurry to expand their family just as yet. She says, "Right now, I am not prepared for motherhood. Saif and I are giving each other more time. We both are working a lot and keeping ourselves busy. I want to be a mother, but the time is yet to come."

Portreath, situated on the North Cornwall coast, about 5 miles north of Redruth, was originally a small fishing village. Today it's a beautiful retreat with a narrow harbour, secluded sandy beaches and a stream running to the sea on one side. It is ideal for swimming, surfing and windsailing in watched by the local Surf and Life Saving Club. Portreath offers the pleasures of sea and countryside with beautiful views, spectacular cliffs and walking trails. Illogan Woods is adjacent to Portreath with lovely streams and a circular walk leading to the 14th century church tower of Illogan. There is also Tehidy Country Park just outside of Portreath with its adjoining golf-course. It is a beautiful country park comprised of 250 acres of woodland, lakes, bridleways, cycling and nature trails. There are several ponds and a lake with swans and various kinds of waterfowl. Occupying a dramatic valley location with one of the most spectacular and beautiful beaches of the Atlantic Coast, Porthtowan has been drawing visitors for years to take advantage of its natural sun trap. A superb location for a holiday to Cornwall with a fine beach and close to good main roads means that you can easily explore the surrounding area on days that are not conducive to sitting on the beach.
Porthtowan has one of Cornwall's finest surfing waves. Producing good waves at all states of the tide, the wave is particularly good in an easterly or south easterly when it really pumps with some lovely hollow barrels. It is not for the faint hearted and beginners should be careful. An excellent surf school operates from the beach. At low tide the beach stretches down to St Agnes Head and Chapel Porth Beach where you will find a lovely National Trust Cafe full of warming hot chocolate and fabulous views. From Porthtowan you are ideally located to reach the many beaches on the North Coast famous for attracting keen surfers and beginners alike.

However they must cure the pungent smell of drains in the bathroom, giving you an aerosol perfumed spray is not acceptable!

Palm cottage was a lovely place to stay, it was v clean, and the views were brilliant. Only one negative there was a strong smell of sewage, and it rained for 3 days during our stay, which exacerbated the problem. The reception team gave us some bleach, and I realise the problem is out of their hands. Also, wifi was very patchy, but I would recommend Palm cottage it was a lovely relaxing holiday.

Guter Ausgangspunkt für Unternehmungen in der Umgebung. Besonders geeignet für Familien. Sehr schöne Anlage mit sehr gut ausgestatteten Häusern. Lediglich im Bad könnten etwas mehr Ablage- bzw. Abstellflächen für die Kosmetikartikel vorhanden sein. Sonst ist das Haus mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht.

Was perfect and will 100% be returning. The only thing I will say if the wifi is is non existent and I did need it but there was a note left under the router explaining why it was so poor and they are working on it. There was a lovely lady that was so helpful and couldn't do enough for us called Michaela.

Guest from Harlow stayed for 5 nights.
As previously stated everything was of a high standard and the owners made themselves easily available. There was only one problem and there was a smell that became too much to bare. The owners responded quickly and offered to move to a different cottage but we were leaving the next day so declined.

Guest from Bidford on Avon stayed for 7 nights.
As far as the property goes, it's just lovely. Spotlessly clean and a wonderful view of the Cornish countryside. Has everything you would expect inside and more - dishwasher, washing machine, good size fridge and freezer. This cottage also has two 2 seater sofas which recline (one of the seats doesn't because it's broken but we weren't expecting that anyway so not an issue) Dishwasher tabs and washing up liquid was provided which was a nice touch. The location is not ideal. It's a halfway house between Portreath and Redruth so you have to travel anywhere to do or get anything. We knew that beforehand of course so again, it's not a criticism, but something to be aware of. There is a pub within walking distance but we didn't try it as it's not the nicest or flattest walk. It's called The Bridge Inn in the village of Bridge. It's an estimated 15-20 minute walk along a tramway towards Portreath. Beware the length of that tramway! I read in the literature that Portreath is a 20 minute walk away - it is not!!! It's 40-45 minutes. Signposting was a bit of an issue. There is not a signpost off the road that the site is located on and it's very easy to miss it. All in all, a lovely modern cottage that I would recommend to anyone.

Guest from Chelmsdord stayed for 14 nights.
The photo shown is not of Palm Cottage...... Although the site is very nice. Very well run and maintained with excellent views. The ground surrounding Palm Cottage had just nowhere to sit comfortably. The picnic table was up the other end of the cottage , not just outside the patio doors, and there was nowhere to sit outside to relax. We eventually pulled the settee over to be by the open patio doors just so we could see the lovely view and feel the fresh air. There were no outside comfortable garden seats provided. Also although it states the site is dog friendly none of the cottages have a safe sectioned off area where you could comfortably and safely let your God be free. Overall the site is lovely but could be greatly improved.....

The cottage was spotless and felt brand new. It had all the home comforts you need (even salt and pepper). The location is perfect. Close enough to the main roads and a huge Tesco for convenience but it felt like you were in the countryside. The view was amazing, rolling countryside and hills. The kids loved it too.

Guest from Oxford stayed for 6 nights.
This property was nicely furnished, clean and tidy, although there was a slight sewage smell coming from the back of the property, which was quite unpleasant. The location was brilliant as it has good road links to lots of great places across Cornwall. In addition, we particularly liked the links to the mineral tramway, which provided hours of fun cycling along off-road in beautiful countryside. The cottage is suited to a family, especially as the play area is in view of the house and there is lots of room for children to run around on the North Cornwall Cottages land. The internet wasn't great, but the staff were really helpful in providing a booster for the wifi, which made it much better. I would definitely recommend this cottage, especially out of peak season as it is much more affordable.
Thank you so much for your review. The sewage smell is now being taken care of, so thank you for making us aware. This seems to be the only cottage to have experienced this smell so we are already in process of fixing. We would love to welcome you back again with very best wishes Natalie

Excellent cottage. A real surprise for a dog owner to find such a property. Clean, smart, everything you need for a relaxing holiday. A comfortable bed, reclining leather sofas, Internet access ....I really can't think of anything it was short of. Oh yes ! Salt and pepper pots ..lol . The heating was excellent , in fact it was too warm at times. The weather was awful while we were there, but when the cloud and mist cleared there were lovely views from the cottage, and can imagine how nice it must be to sit outside at the picnic table in the summer. The staff were lovely and extremely helpful as well. The area is beautiful, the beach at Portreath is lovely and the dogs loved running loose at this time of the year. A real gem. I hope to return in better weather. 5 star cottage and site.

Guest from Nuneaton stayed for 7 nights.
We had a lovely holiday here over half term. As other people have said, there are lots of cottages on the site - 13 I think? But we didn't see many people and found it very quiet and peaceful. Beautiful views over a valley and very easy to get to places due to being a couple of miles from the A30. I was worried about the wifi seeing other people's reviews, and while it didn't cope very well with me trying to watch the Grand Prix qualifying on the laptop, simple browsing was no problem at all and we found it very useful. The team who greeted us were very helpful, answering any questions we had, and they had loads of leaflets and maps which were very useful for us tourists! We found the cottage had everything we needed and was well equipped. We were glad we took tea-towels with us though because there were only two dishwasher tablets and those were used pretty quickly. We don't have a dishwasher at home, so didn't think to bring any of those with us. The bed linen and towels and everything else in fact was very high quality - lovely! I would recommend staying here for sure.

Lovely location, close to Portreath, lots of doggie friendly beaches nearby. We were upgraded to the 'Rainbow' lodge as Palm was having some work done. There was everything inside we needed, all very clean, a couple of small problems were sorted by Jess the sire manager very quickly. The other staff were great, helpful and very friendly, will certainly consider returning...

Guest from Bochum stayed for 14 nights.
The house is nearly new, so everything was in a very well condition. The position on the hillside allows a nice view over the valley. Everybody was very friendly and uncomplicated. It`s a vantage point for touring west-Cornwall and it`s just a short drive to a very big Supermarket for all needs. What we didn`t liked was, that the announcement didn`t that clearly, that the cottage is part of a site with 15 cottages - and that the picture doesn`t show Palm Cottage but one of the others. That woudn`t matter if Palm Cottage wouldn`t be the cottage with the smallest patio of all. There`s no space left to put a chair somewhere if you don`t like to sit on the installed wooden bench. And in front of the patio there`s directly a bed, so we felt a bit locked-in. If you don`t mind that, it`s a really nice place to spend a holiday. But our advice would be to book one of the other cottages.

Thank you for your review. Its always lovely to hear how nice our staff are. We are very lucky with our location being close to the beaches and also not far from the main A30.

An ideally situated cottage for touring the west of cornwall. A brand new development that will only improve as the gardens mature. The cottage was light airy and modern, excellent kitchen and bathroom. Huge walk in shower and bath as well. Amazing views, close to th A30 for travelling around and Portreath is an amazing place, no dogs on the beach though. Also the coast to coast walk runs past the cottage! Would (and have) recommended to others. Would like to try the fishing and eating experience next time.

Byram buzz begins for 2019 NHL Draft, with Vancouver rookie D-man slotted for early selection
"His skating and willingess to carry the puck is what makes him elite. His skating is just so effortless. He's such an efficient player."
The double-take reactions prompted by moves by Vancouver Giants rookie defenceman Bowen Byram have been plenty this season, and likely began in one of the first team meetings of the campaign.
The players were asked at the time to write down their goals for this season. Byram's included wanting to gain the respect of other players, both on the Giants roster and from around the league.
It's certainly not your standard refrain at this level, and particularly not often from someone like a Byram, who came into the campaign with hype after being the third overall pick in the 2016 WHL bantam draft and even receiving power-play time last season with the Giants as an under-age call-up.
As Vancouver veteran winger Ty Ronning put it: "It's such a cool answer … that really opened my eyes."
"I just thought if you're a good player on and off the ice, other players will develop some respect for you, whether they are older or younger than you," said Byram, a 6-foot, 188-pound left-hand shot from Cranbrook. "And that's in your own locker room, and even players from other teams."
It's safe to say that it's happening.
The smooth-skating, puck-moving Byram has been one of the three or four best Giants so far this season. You don't often say such things about rookies, and rookie defencemen in particular.
He is among the leaders on the team in ice time, and 16-year-old defencemen in the WHL usually have their match-ups carefully monitored by their coaches.
Giants fans haven't seen something quite like this maybe since David Musil's first year in 2009-10, or possibly Jon Blum's in 2005-06, or even Mark Fistric's in 2002-03.
When you're talking about the Giants, that's good company.
Byram was also part of the Canada Red team that finished second at the World Under-17 Challenge in Fort St. John and Dawson Creek earlier this month, and was later named to the event's all-star team.
An executive from a rival WHL club who watched the event said that Byram was "exceptionally good" and pegged him as being "in the top percentage" of all players in Canada for his age group.
Coming off of that, Craig Button at TSN last week put out an early ranking for the 2019 NHL Draft, and had Byram at No. 2, behind only American centre Jack Hughes. The Giants have had four NHL first rounders in franchise history, with Evander Kane the earliest thanks to going fourth overall to the Atlanta Thrashers in 2009.
"I'm not thinking about it. I try to keep that stuff out of my mind," Byram said of the hoopla. "It can distract you from how you want to play or how you can play."
Byram has been strong enough in his own zone, paired with veteran Darian Skeoch, that the Giants are using him on their first-unit penalty kill and late in periods with a lead.
Former Kootenay Ice head coach Luke Pierce was an assistant with Canada Red and says that Giants bench boss Jason McKee and associate coach Dean Chynoweth — who oversees the defencemen for Vancouver — will give Byram "self confidence to continue to improve that part of his game."
That said, it's his ability to jump into the play that will always be the first thing you notice about Byram, Pierce maintains.
He reminds you at times of Tyson Barrie from his Kelowna Rockets days with how gets deep into opposing territory.
Going into a Wednesday visit to the Langley Events Centre by the Lethbridge Hurricanes, Byram was the top-scoring rookie defenceman in the league, with 10 points, including one goal, in 18 games. For comparison, Blum had 24 points, including seven goals, in 61 games in his 16-year-old year, and he is fifth all-time in the franchise in points, with 204, including 49 goals, in 248 games.
"His skating and willingess to carry the puck is what makes him elite," Pierce said of Byram. "His skating is just so effortless. He's such an efficient player."
